Joint found between the edges of first metacarpal and carpal(trapezium) is?

  1. Hinge

  2. Condyloid

  3. Gliding

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

A hinge joint allows movement primarily on one plane. A hinge joint spool like the surface of one bone fits into the concave surface of another love.

Articulation between the occipital condyls of skull and atlas vertebra also forms a huge joint.

Example of hinge joint is

  1. Elbow joint

  2. Ankle joint

  3. Interphalangeal joint

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The hinge joint is a synovial joint, which permits uniaxial movement of bone about one axis of rotation. In hinge joint, convex surface of one bone fits into concave surface of another. The movements possible are flexion and extension. Example of hinge joints are elbow, interphalangeal joint, knee and ankle joints.

Articulation of ulna with humerus at the elbow joint is _________ joint.

  1. Hinge

  2. Pivotal

  3. Gliding

  4. Ball and socket
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Answer:
1.The elbow joint is a synovial hinge joint with two articulations.
2.The trochlea of the humerus articulates with the trochlear notch of the ulna, and the capitulum of the humerus articulates with the head of the radius.
So correct answer is option A.Hinge joint.

  3. Both of the above

  4. Frog
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Saddle joint is a type of synovial joint in humans in which opposing articular surfaces with both concave and convex surfaces fit into one another. Example of saddle joint is carpometacarpal joint of thumb.

Hinge joint is present between

  1. Femur and ulna

  2. Humerus and ulna

  3. Femur and pectoral girdle

  4. Femur and pelvic girdle
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Synovial joints are characterised by the presence of a fluid-filled synovial cavity between the articulating surfaces of the two bones. Such an arrangement allows considerable movement. These joints help in locomotion and many other movements. Common examples of synovial joints are ball and socket joint (between the humerus and pectoral girdle) and hinge joint (knee and elbow joints).

Joint between atlas and axis is

  1. Pivot joint

  2. Saddle Joint

  3. Angular joint

  4. Hinge joint
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Joint between atlas and axis vertebrae is an example of pivot joint. It is a type of synovial joint. This joint is characterised with central bony pivot surrounded by collar of bone and ligament. This type of joint permits supination, rotation and pronation types of movements. Examples are proximal radioulnar joint and atlanto-axial joints.
